00:00He actually called me like 5.20 and he like, yo, I told you the let it go hook is going
00:11to be the one.
00:12Let it go, let it go.
00:13I had the two hooks for the song.
00:14He was like, I told you that was the one right there.
00:17He said, I'm going to call you when I get off stage, you know what I mean?
00:23I had the song for a little minute and then I just heard his voice.
00:28I wanted to bring out that soul, that party 2000, that 2000 feeling back because you know
00:34there's a lot of drills out here.
00:35Everybody want to put hoodies on and masks and you know what I mean?
00:39It's too much of that.
00:41So I'm like, let me bring that vibe back when it's cool to get dressed, get a haircut for
00:45the females.
00:46Like everybody want to put a mask on, drill a little dick.
00:48So that's why, I mean, I had a fabulous school, you know, once you hear his voice, you want
00:52to, no matter how gangster he was, no matter what, you want to dance.
00:56So he, Cabo put the word in, Charles and Jim, Jim, Jim, he definitely put that word in.
01:03And Fat Man Scoop, me and him got on the phone, I used to be the vibing dude, and he kept
01:10his word.
01:11After his birthday, he flew up, he flew out here.
01:12I flew him out here after his birthday, he pulled up, right to the video.
01:16The day before that, I tried to get my outfit, it took me a whole day, size 50 is crazy,
01:21you know what I mean?
01:22He said, he was like, go get me a size 50.
01:25I was crazy looking for that whole day, you know what I mean?
01:27So I was looking at it for like the whole day, looking for a size 50, it's like no stores
01:31had it in New York City.
01:32He was telling me to dance.
01:33I mean, like, you got to dance, man, you got to show that side of you, like, he was just,
01:37he just, the vibe was good, like, you know what I mean?
01:40The vibe was good, like, he a good person, I could tell, like, I mean, he helped out
01:43a lot.
01:44I mean, he had to do that.
01:45Honestly.
01:46Pulled up, flew out here, shot the video, stayed, chilled with us, you know what I mean?
01:51That was a good look.
01:52And the same day I pulled it out, he passed, that just bugged out, I got the last video,
01:58last song with him.
01:59I don't know, God sent him, he did that, and just, you know what I mean, it just bugged
02:03out.
02:04Just hearing him, you know what I mean?
02:05Just speaking on it, it's crazy.
02:06He was beastin', he was beastin' for Flex to play it too, and Flex played it that Thursday.
02:10He called me, yeah, yeah, Flex played it, I heard it, you know what I mean?
02:13He was beastin', he wanted Flex to play it back, you know what I mean?
02:17And Flex, when he played it, shot the phone to Flex, he played it that same day, you know
02:21what I mean?
02:23A lot of people don't do features and want to be, and want you to push it with them.
02:28They do a feature, and they just leave it like that.
02:30He actually wanted to push it with me, you know what I mean?
02:34So I can't let it sit there like that, but it's him.
02:38I'm gonna take it to him in about an hour or so, I'm gonna try to do it, well, not try
02:44to do it, I am gonna do all of the ad-libs tomorrow, and then I'm gonna call Flex to
02:49take it from there.
02:50His last words was, if you came to the party, you make some noise.
02:55You know what I mean?
02:56So, I don't think he didn't want nobody to be sad, I think he wanted people to live life
03:00and be happy.
03:01That's how he was, he was a happy person, so I feel like he don't want this record to
03:07sit there, so I'm gonna do my best, you know what I mean?
03:11Let it go.
